The origin of AIDS?


This seems like an interesting idea that's been put forward after study.

The short of it is that two viruses met in Chimpanzees - then mixed - then matched - to create the progenitor of the human HIV virus.

'Dual source' caused Aids-like virus

Re:The origin of AIDS?

The biggest tragedy of modern times? Or is it? One of them at least. amazing how easy viruses seem to exchange DNA.
